Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

Working on a hill overlooking I84. Noticed 2 objects moving across the sky,then started to loop in circles following each other over lapping one another. Every time they circled in the direction of the sun they reflected like they were so sort of shiny alloy. By time I called a coworker over they vanished. No trails, No sound, moving very fast flying in jet territory.

Was traveling on Route 84 west, between exits 31 and 30, at 6:30am, when in front of me, off in the distance some three miles away one triangular shaped object (with three points aiming up) was descending rapidly straight down. It was bright white/silver thinking the sun was reflecting off of it. As it disappeared I expected a large sound thinking it was going to crash and explode. As I was driving on Route 84 towards where I figured it crashed. Kept looking for any orange glow and/or smoke but nothing. Tried to rationalize by thinking it was a satellite or other space debris. Nothing on the news.

I was leaving my house to grab my phone from my car when I looked in the sky and saw a bunch of flashing lights in the sky. I passed behind some trees so I assumed it was just a low fling plane, but as I looked closer, it had moved an extreme amount of distance. At this time I went to take a picture wen it began to fade. However just as it was about to dissapear from sight it made a bright likght the vanished.
